I'm very glad Kia survived, but what a horror story! Lucky the owner was such a slob. Even a cursory glance inside the car could have prevented that from happening though.
I mean, what if someone had stuffed a dead body in the trunk, and they didn't bother to check the car until the smell got their attention? Seems like it should be a policy to do a basic check on incoming cars.
That is some sloppy police work. And this is not completely reassuring... "medical officials have since told them that she LIKELY died on impact." Just sad.
